Abstract
Congenital Fused Cervical Vertebrae Ã?¢Ã?â?¬Ã?â?? A Case report
Singh Ajitpal
Normal typical cervical vertebrae i.e. 3rd to 6th are characterized by the presence of small body, triangular spinal canal, foramina transversarium, superior articular facet directed backwards & upward, inferior articular facet directed forward & downwards and a short bifid spine. Abnormalities in any of the features may be associated with neurological signs and symptoms. During the routine osteology classes we found two abnormally fused typical cervical vertebrae in the dept. of anatomy, Desh Bhagat Dental College & Hospital, Sri Muktsar Sahib. Both the pairs of cervical vertebrae were unilaterally fused at the zygapophyseal joints on the right sides and in one of the case the laminas were also fused partially on the right side.
